Abstract
The present invention is related to the field of receptor molecules and complexes. More particularly, the present invention is related to a new polypeptide receptor for interleukin-2 having a molecular weight of about 70-75,000, which is a component of the high affinity IL-2 receptor, antibodies against this new polypeptide, and recombinant interleukins capable of binding to the new receptor. Various applications of the p70-75 receptor, the anti-p70-75 antibodies and IL-2W.sub.1 and IL2W.sub.2 have also been described.
